I'm researching the names of the natural children Hon Basil Cochrane is said to have sired in India,especially a son who became an army major & had a son called Alexander Surjant Cochrane 1843-1907.I would like to find the grave of my grandfather Charles Basil Cochrane,died spring 1927,son of A.S.Cochrane & Eleanor ( they eloped aged 17 & 18 )They appear on the census later, living in baker sq.London I think,now aged 38 & 39 with 2 sons 19 & 20.The younger one being my grandfather.

My maiden name is Cochrane and I am researching my family line back to the Cochranes of Dundonald from which I am descended.
